Robbie tested the Nissan BladeGlider - which can top 100kph in less than five seconds - against an identical all-electric sports car on closed roads in the iconic French Riviera Principality.

The high performance one-of-a-kind car was designed by EV Leader Nissan to showcase the fun and excitement of pure electric vehicles and offer a glimpse of the all-electric sports car of the future.

Margot Robbie put the futuristic three-seater through its paces before finishing her thrilling drive in Casino Square, which has served as the set for blockbusters Ocean's Eleven and Casino Royale not to mention Grand Prix racing since the 1920s.

In the short film, The Wolf of Wall Street and Suicide Squad star is seen drifting around Fairmont Hairpin, arguably the most famous corner in Formula One racing, and executing a daring overtaking manoeuvre along the sweeping Massenet corner.

As the manufacturer of the world's bestselling electric vehicle, the Nissan LEAF, the video forms part of a campaign - #ElectrifyTheWorld - to get more people talking about sustainability and zero emissions living.

Margot Robbie said: "It's a really exciting time for electric vehicles. More people are choosing to go electric, leading the way to a more sustainable future and the Nissan BladeGlider hints at the future of smarter performance cars."

Gareth Dunsmore, Director of Electric Vehicles for Nissan Europe said: "We want to inspire people to take small steps towards cleaner, safer cities, and working with Margot is the perfect way to do just that."

The BladeGlider is part of Nissan's Intelligent Mobility vision, showing how cars could evolve to connect with the world around them.

Monte Carlo provided the perfect backdrop for Nissan to reveal Margot Robbie and showcase its all-electric sports car. Monaco has an ambitious sustainability programme and aims to reduce carbon emissions by as much as 50 percent, by 2030.
